Steak and Sandwich Components

Side Salad

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper, and grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until your desired doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Vegetable Sauté

  1. 2

    Sauté the Peppers and Onions

    While the steak is resting, slice the bell peppers and onion. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Toast the Ciabatta Rolls

    Slice the ciabatta rolls in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 4

    Layer the Sandwich

    Spread chimichurri butter on the toasted side of each ciabatta roll. Layer sliced steak, sautéed bell peppers and onions, swiss cheese, and fresh mixed greens on the bottom half of the roll. Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top before placing the other half of the roll on top.

Preparing the Side Salad

  1. 5

    Assemble the Salad

    In a bowl, combine mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber. Toss with ranch dressing just before serving.
